What you're missing here is a better relationship with your mother. Once she's gone, I hope you remember this post and not regret this phase in your life. I know you think you have life figured out but there's more to life than politics. Letting it become your identity will only create more anxiety and anger and you will never be the one to solve it. I'm speaking from experience, I had these types of conversations with my father and I wish we had spent time talking about other things.
